FOLLOW OUR UNUSUAL LIFE ABROAD (currently in MALTA) IN THE FOREIGN SERVICE. Sunday, March 29, 2015. Filling in the Space- Milan, Italy. The previous couple posts were the brunt of our time in Milan. And I found it easier to post pics, if I chopped up the trip. Kinda have a habit of oversnapping pics.kinda. We enjoyed the Katy Perry concert, Lunar New Year and Duomo immensely, but these little tidbits sure made us happy, as well. Having no real agenda was nice ;) Loving lunch pizza so much that we ordered...

FOLLOW OUR UNUSUAL LIFE ABROAD (currently in MALTA) IN THE FOREIGN SERVICE. Monday, June 30, 2014. Our sweet neighbor invited us to come pick nectarines at his farm recently. So on a fresh summer day during our school break, we meandered down the winding alleys and streets of Gharghur and landed at his gate. A week's worth of nectarines, flowers and big smiles. such a nice morning! We've also had the great opportunity to visit other local farms. Monday, June 23, 2014. World Cup at the Aquarium.

Beyond the Cornfields: Behind the Scenes Tour- Malta National Aquarium
http://beyondthecornfields.blogspot.com/2015/05/behind-scenes-tour-malta-national.html
FOLLOW OUR UNUSUAL LIFE ABROAD (currently in MALTA) IN THE FOREIGN SERVICE. Monday, May 18, 2015. Behind the Scenes Tour- Malta National Aquarium. Aside from beaches, the Malta Aquarium has to be our most frequented place in Malta that we go as a family. It is solitude from winter gloom and a retreat from summer heat. It teaches. It relaxes. It amazes each of us in our own way. The playground keeps the kids thrilled, but so do the fish. I love that they are both so familiar and at home at the aquarium.

FOLLOW OUR UNUSUAL LIFE ABROAD (currently in MALTA) IN THE FOREIGN SERVICE. Thursday, May 21, 2015. Verdala International Night- Malta- 2015. Each year, the International school hosts an evening International Night. It is one of the biggest events, with each table filled with various country's foods and treats. We all pitch in, cook and volunteer at the stands. Our stand was a hit, maybe in part because of awesome Ruben, who was yelling out "get your hot dogs, get your fresh popcorn! Wife, mama, gardener...

FOLLOW OUR UNUSUAL LIFE ABROAD (currently in MALTA) IN THE FOREIGN SERVICE. Sunday, January 25, 2015. Made GREAT use of our last 2 days before Christmas break ended! I love how when we arrived at the hillside park, they asked what we should do. After an hour of playing with rocks, they still weren't ready to leave. And having an open stretch of car free path to run is priceless here in Malta. The sweetest part? It's just down the hill from our house. Love! Our hotel Hotel San Michele. And walked into Mao...

FOLLOW OUR UNUSUAL LIFE ABROAD (currently in MALTA) IN THE FOREIGN SERVICE. Wednesday, August 13, 2014. As kids, we thought rhubarb was tart. and it is. But over the years, we acquired the love for rhubarb custard pie, homemade by Grandpa or Mom every summer and as treats through the cold winter. The girls asked lots of questions about this new plant and helped to put the pies together. Let's hope we can get them to love it too. eventually! Grandpa Kueker's Rhubarb Custard Pie. Pour onto pie mixture.

But for the 4th weekend, we arranged our first little excursion to our neighboring SICILY! Aisles of American food. I think I shed a tear or two. We couldn't have picked a better weekend to head to Sicily! Wife, ma...

Lots of parades and festivities all throughout Malta and Gozo. Last year, it drizzled the entire weekend, so we missed the events.

FOLLOW OUR UNUSUAL LIFE ABROAD (currently in MALTA) IN THE FOREIGN SERVICE. Wednesday, December 24, 2014. Christmas Eve Day in Valletta. On Christmas Eve Day, as the kids were on break and Papa was at work, we decided to have a friend day outing. I found a military concert for free in an outdoor theater in Valletta, so asked some good friends to join us. And no more fun way to get to Valletta than to walk from their home and catch the ferry across the bay! As were the pigeons to chase. We were treated wi...
